It is the fashion among many persons to declare that the present race is deteriorating, and that men nowadays do not exhibit such powers of mind and body as formerly; also that they soon spend their energies and become "used-up," A striking cone tradiction to these remarks is to be met with in the rerson of Lord PALMERSTON, who has just com plated his eightieth year. It is interesting to dwell upon the epitome of such an extended career, especially when we reflect that the subject of study now holds the office of First Minister of the country, and thus forms a connecting link between the great ones of the past and the most importont events of the present. Deep set in tho ranges of history are many of the names with which the world was ringing when Lord PALMERSTON was born, but now the shifting scene has so often changed, that to all intents and purposes they might as well belong to the seventeenth as the eighteenth century, for any affects that they pro duce upon our affairs. When we remember that PITT, F ox , e QIIERIDAN, BURKE, and I WILBER- Foncz were then either entering on their careers, or then flourishing in full vigour, that Louts XVI. was reigning peacefully on the throne of France, and that the great French Revo lution was yet to come, we m a y f ee l a l mos t t em pt e d to exclaim, in the words of the poet— " Antiquity appears to have beg un ',Nig after thy primeval race was run." regqrds ther Who, for iustunce, trial 0, WARREN HASTINGS as anything but a very ancient affair; yet our present Premier was then in E xi dence. Some may be surprised to notice the many exciting • ta. and interesting events that have occurred durityi the career of the noble lord, and they are a:oly set forth in a striking sketch in the Western Morning Neu's. A more appropriate article could not have been penned for the natal day of the octo' genarian, and many associations and reflections combine to impart interest to its recapitulation. Not only has the noble lord lived ever this long period, which has seen the crash, of empires, the wreck of states, and the overthrow of destinies, bat he has taken for a considerable space of time an active part in the affairs of the nation. Few, if any, can boast of having been so long in harness as the present First Lord of the Treasury, Many of his colleagues have departed this life full of honours, if not of years, and peer le have said that they were worn out with the cares of State and the toils of office, but meanwhile the ruling power has gone on, and in the whirl of existence lookers on have been too busy or too ignorant to reckon that he was in office when some of them, supposed to be exhausted with their efforts, have sunk by the wayside, weary of the march of life, as it is well put in the notice re ferred to, Lord PALMERSTON, during this recess, has been at the city of Hereford, " inaugurating the statue of a departed colleague, who was born in the year he himself entered Parliament. Yet again he is down amid the chalky plains of Wiltshire, where, at the former residence of another departed colleague, who was an infant when Lord PALMERSTON was vigorously carrying on war against the first NAPOLEON, he gives sound advice to a portion of our great volunteer army." Surely such things are as strange as any of the incidents that are sedu lously sought for in the pages of fie , tion, and the representations of the drama. May we not learn, not only the uncer tainty of life in its length as well as in its shortness—may we not feel the incompatibility of our frail judgments and erring calculations to compute the span of existence, and to measure out what this man shall do and the other man cannot. Had a mysterious reader of future events in some of the marvellous fashions of the present day declared, half a century back, to his audience that at this especial juncture the noble vis count would be at the helm of affairs, and that so many of his friends and colleagues would have been laid low, would not the most willing of his auditors have refused credence to the tale, and supposed that the narrator was indeed dreaming. One should be taken, and another left, is a well-known description of human events; but not often do we find that one man survives so many younger and apparently longer lived men than himself—survives them, too, in the active performance of laborious duties—in the anxious cares of a responsible position, and in the full discharge of those public, private, and political duties which ceaselessly re volve around a career so elevated. It cannot be said that the noble lord shirks his work, and did they not know the fact from the register of incontrovertible accuracy. The lookers on of public affairs would certainly have no right to suppose that he lived in the days when the young Pretender was existing in Rome, or that " the Premier of to-day was an active War Secre tary ere Lord WtLLINGTON baffled MASSENA before the lines of Torres Vedras. Such records and reminiscences put aside the discords of the present, and from the mighty events that seem lost in the twilight of fable they carry us on to the great future, in the light of which the posteritics of distant nations and the children of unborn generations shall scan our actions and discourse of our doings. Greater and more distinguished men have illumined our epoch and adorned our age ; but Lord PALMERSTON may lay &aim to the merit of making his vocation his pride and pleasure—of entering upon his work with zest that gives it spirit, and with vigour that imparts vivacity. It is the feelings of men that really alter and influence them ; some are never young in the true sense of the word, and some are never old in the real acceptation of the term, but surely :those who meet their task in the genial and gracious way are the wisest, the happiest, and the most successful. We are told that a merry heart goes all the day, and through the years of his pilgrimage Lord PALMERSTON has proved the truth of this adage. In the summary of his career before alluded to, it is truly remarked that it can never be said that "Lord PALMERSTON has stood idle in the market-place of life, it can never be said that when called upon to serve his Sovereign in the political crisis and exigencies of his couatry, he has been weighed in the balance and found wanting." This is an honoured and honour. able reflection for a man to carry with him to retirement. The Chancellor of the Exchequer the other day seemed to be getting weary, and spoke of a future unconnected with the turmoils of politics) but in this nation he found no encouragement from his leader, he is firm at his post, true to his colours, and faithful to his calling. Various ways conduce to the same end ; there may be some who pass their last years in happy retirement in atium cum dignitate, and recount to wondering listeners the thrice told but ever welcome tale of the glories of their prime; but there are others who go on till the last working at the plough, from which having put their hand they have not looked back and content to wait firm at their post until the Great Master shall summon them to receive the eternal wages of their earthly toil. Of such we may reckon our Premier, and, as Mr. DISRAELI once said that the career of Lord RUSSELL was among the precious possessions of the House of Commons, so it may appropriately be observed that Lord PALMERSTON'S history is among the honoured trophies of Ministerial records. He has shown how a man may hold an onerous task with credit to himself, and fulfil important duties with a willing mind and a cheerful heart. Surely this is a lesson that youth may mark and manhood notice. It is always difficult to spend old age happily, but to spend it heartily and honour ably is still more rare. This need not be if right feelings influence the mind, and an earnest spirit impress the actions. The ruling spirit strong in death may be strong while life lasts ; and when we notice that attention wanes, interest flags, and affection dulls, as years increase, it is often because the root was not deep, nor the appearance genuine. Amaranthines and asphodels can only flourish on indigenous soils, and if the energy be not strong, nor the endurance perfect, they will fail as life progresses; but if they are solid and can weather the storm, they will last in perennial vigour, and blow in unfading splendour until the shadow feared of man proclaims that the night is far spent, and tha day is at hand. A better defi nition of the endurance of deepsrooted sentiments was never given than in these expressive lines of WORDSWORTH Thy thoughts and feelings shall not din, Nor leave thee when grey hairs are nigh A melancholy slave, But an old age, serene and bright, And lovely as a Lapland night, Shall light thee to the grave. There is a certain sort of Nemesis which always overtakes evildoers in some form or another. True, it may not always be in the particular way ouPposed by lookers-en, or it may not suffice to • render justice to the injured parties, but still a cera tain amount of inconvenience and non-success often appears to wait on the footsteps of wrongdoing. Thus it is with Austria and Prussia, who are now on anything but amiable terms; and although no thing decided is allowed to appear to bear witness to this fact, it is nevertheless true that minor events testify strongly enough as to the want of concord. Like straws, which show in which direction the wind blows, do these little things display the beginning of the end, when these rapacious Powers will find it impossible to arrange things according to their mutual satisfaction, or to gain the proposed end which they had in view from the outset, to make a common cause of warfare and a common system of plunder. All foresighted parsons saw this from the outset of the affair ; but still, at the same time, the entente cor diale might have been supposed to last a little longer. This peace, that is no peace, may bring some startling circnmstances in its train, not only may it alienate for ever the respect cad sympathies of England from the German Powers, but it may also sow the seeds of lasting discord be tween those very countries that began the war in such apparent concord and fair-seeming vigour. The official organs at Vienna are assuming rather a pe culiar tone towards M. BIsMARK and Prussia. Either they see through his designs or they are irritated at the confusion into which things have been brought, and they are annoyed at the injury to the reputation of their land which the late events has wrought ; at any rate the Berlin Cabinet must be vexed at the aspect of affairs, and the very questionable appear• ante which this" glorious alliance" now makes to the world. A feeling is manifested in various quarters that it would be better for Austria to give up such very close connection with Prussia, and to turn her attention towards France. If this should be the case eventually it will be all for the best. The French Government are incapable of sanction ing the treachery which appears the vital principle of the Prussian Cabinet, its informing influence and its ruling spirit. Prussia, though she may take the lion's share of the spoil, cannot notwithstanding do so much mischief nor under take so much when she has lost the excuse of works ing with and for Austria as well as for herself. We know that " union is strength," and if so the re• verse is true, and disunion is weakness, or compa rative inability or incapacity. It may then be con sidered that the want of unity between the great German Powers is a good sign, and indeed we require some auspicious augury after all the sinister forbodings that have had too much founda tion in fatal experience. At the annual gathering of the members of the Chertsey Agricultural Association, yesterday, some subjects were discussed which have lately attracted a good deal of public attention. Politicians of all sides are awakening to the conviction that, what ever opinion they may hold as to the Parliamentary reform necessary for the enfranchisement of the working classes, or as to the inequality of the burdens on land and agriculture there are some practical social reforms which all must admit to be indispensable, some grievances which most imperae tively demand a remedy. The condition of the agricultural cottages in too many parts of the rural districts is one of these evils, and if we are to hops for any substantial change for the better in this respect, it must be brought about by the agency of public opinion. There is no statu'e that will reach the case—no legislation however arbitrary that can compel a landowner to lay out his money in rJbuilding or repairing cottages. The great difficulty we have to contend against is the want of will ; and the obnoxious law of settlement and the dread of the poor rates stand _fearfully in the way. It is idle to assume, as some pereons seem to do that the full evils of the case have only to be stated to obtain immediate attenaion. It is very easy, as we know, to indulge in fine phrases and charitable aspirations in public ; no one in these days would acknowledge to any want of respect or care for the necessities of the humbler classes. But too often the real sentiments of the landlord on this matter would not bear in spection, and the fewer cottages on his estate the better he is pleased. There is another evil in the want of encouragement thus given to the building of suitable tenements by the proprietors of land, which is, that the trade of building falls into the hands of ignorant or inferior persons. As a speaker at the Chertsey meeting observed, in allud ing to the deficiencies often visible, the builders often knew no better. " They did ,sot think that fresh air and good water were necessary to healthy human life. But if our great men —our landowners and rich people—wished to benefit the poor working men, and the whole com. munity, let them build cottages for the poor man, not in another parish, not at the far end of the world, but upon their own estates, and show the peasants, not by talking but by deeds, that their sympathy was with the labouring man." This, as he justly added, would be the way to show their attachment not only to the soil, but to the men they employed upon it ; and surely, if our landowners are proud of boasting of their allegiance to their mother earth, they should ba still more tenacious of their sympathies for the noble race of working men who tread it. But, as we have said, there will always be recreants in the cause, and the only means of inducing them to do their duty is by exercising the pres sure of public opinion upon them. Happily, the rights of the case are now so generally acknow ledged that no man would at the present day admit his share in the duties as well as in the rights of property. We must, therefore, hope for the gradual extension of the good cause, and all who are interested in its furtherance must take care that it is not allowed to drop out of sight. TILE REPRESENTATION OF TYNEMOUTIL—The contest between Mr G. 0. Trevelyan, author of the " Competition Wallah," the Liberal candidate, and Mr Richard Hodgson, the Conservative member for Tynemouth, for the latter gentleman's seat at, the general election, is likely to in a very close one. Mr Trevelyan and an active Liberal committee have been canvassing the electors of the burgh, and they declare themselves highly satisfied with the result of it. Mr Hodson has addressed two be on on Saturday, the othe r on Wednesday evening.He came unwell after the Saturday's meeting, and ho has not been able to make a personal canvass, but his friends have ady been very active in his behalf. Both parti are alre extremely zoalous in procuring pledges from the electors. — Scotsman. MAGNIFICENT METEOR. —A mqgnlficent meteor was observed at Melton about 8 o'clock on We ices day night. The moon had not risen when suddenly a blueish light spread around, sufficiently bright to allow of persons recognising one another's faces. Across the sky from N,N.E. to S.S.W. what bore the exact resemblance head of an inverted rocket wa s seen to shoot slowly, only the or nebula was intense 4 bright, of a blueish whiteness, leav ing a long train of "sparks" resembling a comet's tail, which were discernible for some seconds. The meteor re tained its brilliancy for some seconds. The meteor retained its brilliancy till it (apparently) neared Vac earth. So bril liant a meteor, and of suc h magnitude and durat'on, is quite unusual.

(front the _London Gazette of last Evening ) WAIL-OFFICE, OCT. 26. The Secretary of State for War has received despatches, with their enclosures, from Lieutenant-General Sir Duncan Cameron, K,C.8., commanding her Majesty's Forces in New Zealand, of which the following are copies : Headquarters, Auckland, August 2, 1864. My Lord,—l have the honour to report, that in accord ance with the intention expressed in my despatch to your lordship of 7th Juno, I have not undertaken any active operations against the rebels during the past month. I have, however, the satisfaction of informing your lord ship that on the 25th July, 133 natives of Tauranga, in cluding some chiefs of rank, delivered up their arms to Colonel Greer, commanding at that station, and signed a declaration of allegiance to the Queen, leaving their lands at the disposal of the Governor. His Excellency has requested m e to accompany him to Tauranga, where he has been solicited by the natives to meet them and arrange the terms of their submission. It s expected that W. Thompson and other chiefs will also be present, in which case it is possible that other tribes, besides those of Tauranga, may be included in the arraugement. I fear, however, that from the want of adhesion among the many tribes composing the native population, it is scarcely to be expected that the meeting about to take place at Tauranga will lead to a general pacification of the country. I herewith enclose Colonel Greer's report of his proceed ings, and I beg to bring to your lordship's favourable notice the great zeal, judgment, and ability displayed by that officer whilst in command of the troops at Tauranga, —1 have, &c., D. A. CAMERON, Lieutenant-General. The Right Hon. the Secretary of State for War, War-offico, London. C snip Tepapa, Tauranga, July 25, 1864. Sir,— I have the honour to report, for the information of the Lieutenant-General Commanding, that 133 native warriors, amongst whom were many chiefs of rank, came into camp and laid down their arms to-day. Previous to their coming in, Mr Rice explained to them that their land was to be at the disposal of the Governor and the General ; and before I accepted their Submission and took their arms, each man signed a document, which was read over twic e to them, stating that he clearly understood that fact, and also a declaration of loyalty to the Queen. All Tauraaga has now submitted, with the exception of two chiefs, who have perhaps from 10 to 20 followers be tween them. I have permitted the natives to remain in the village of Oitamoite, and at Maunge tape, pending further instruc tions ; and they are naturally most anxious for some speedy settlement relative to their land. I beg to bring to notice the tact and ability of Mr Rico in conducting the matter to which this letter alludes, which he carried through satisfactorily, notwithstanding the op position and obstruction of Mr Mackay, Commissioner of the Thames District (whom I have been obliged to confine to the neighbourhood of his tent), and Mr Baker, interpre • ter, without compromising the position of the Government or our arms, and at the same time gaining the esteem and goodwill of the natives. 1 enclose lists of the arms delivered, of the names and tribes of the natives who have surrendered, and a copy of the document which they signed, also an account of the proceedings, and of the speeches of the natives when they delivered up their arras, which has been furnished to me by the Interpreter, Mr Baker; but as his translation gives a very different meaning in some instances from that which was conveyed to mo by Mr Shepherd (Inter preter from Taupo) , who acted as Interpreter when the na tives were speaking , I have requested the Lord Bishop m of e W a aiapo, w h o was present and took notes , t o g ive translation, t o which ito kindly assented, I have. &c., (Signed) IL 11. GREER, Colonel, Commanding Tauranga District. The Dcputy Quartermaster-General, head Quarters. Headquarters, Tauranga, New Zealand, August 6, 1861. My Lord, —I have the honour to raport that the meeting referred to in my despatch, between his Excellency the Governor and the natives of Tauranga, has passed off most satisfactorily, the natives having submitted unc onditionally the to the Queen's authority , and placed all their lands at Governor's disposal. I herewith enclose the terms of peace which were granted to them, and with which they all expressed themselves per fectly satisfied. Hostilities are now at an end in this part of the colony, and there is reason to hope that the liberal terms accorded to the natives of Tauranga may induce other tribes to make their submissions,—l have, &c. D. A. CAMERON, Lientenant-General, The Right Hon. the Secretary of State for War ; War. omce, London. --- SIR GEORGE GREY'S ADDRESS TO THE =STILE NATIVES OF TAURANGA, ON 6THAUGUST, 1864. At present I am not acquainted with the boundaries or extent of your lands, or with the claims of individuals or tribes. What I shall therefore do is this : I shall order t h a t s ettlements shall at once be assigo you as far as assign d t poss ible in such localities as you may se lect, which shall be secured by Crown grants to yourselves and your children. When this has been done and the boundaries of your lands have been ascertained, I will inform you in what manner the residue of your lands will bo dealt with; but as it is right in some measure to mark our sense of the honourable manner in which you conducted hostilities, neither robbing nor murdering, hut respecting the wounded, I promise you, in the ultimate settlement of your lands, the amount taken shall not exceed one-fourth of the whole land. And in order that you ma y , without delay, again be placed in a position which will enable you to maintain yourselves, as soon as your future location has been decided, seed potatoes and the means of settling on your lands will be given you. I now speak to the friendly natives. I thank you warmly for your good conduct under circumstances of great diffi culty. I will consider in what manner you shall be re warded for your fidelity. In the meantime in any arrange ments which may be made about the lands of your tribe, your rights will bo scrupulously respected, (Signed) Tauranga, 6th August, 1864. G. GREY. HEALTH OF AIR. ROEBUCK.—The hon. member fjr Sheffield is so seriously indisposed that ho has been compelled to forego two engagements to appear in public— One at Shtffiell', and the other at littaderatield. Circular of Senor Gonzalez Bravo, MADRID, Oct. 15. The following is the official text of the circular signed by Senor Gonzalez Bravo, Minister of the Interior, relative to the new elections, A brief sum mary has been forwarded by telegraph : " Ministry of the Interior, Oct. 14. " The period appointed for the election of dep . ties to the Cortes has now commenced. Although the Government, in its circular of Sept. 19 has already formally defined the bases of its policy in so far as relates to the internal government of the kingdom, and has since strongly confirmed . by its conduct the assurances of that communication, it is ❑evertheless considered advinble to forward your Excellency some brief instructions, with the view, if possible, explaining still more clearly our.ideas relative to certain points which might still seem doubtful. "I do not consider it necessary to remind your Excellency of the terms in which the Government thus expressed its firm resolution to confine itseAf scrupulously within the limits fixed by the Consti. tution, the laws, and the rights thereby prescribed. Nevertheless, as the acts of the Government with reference to the elections of deputies in the Cortes may, in certain cases, furnish pretexts for criticism, and even for dangerous opposition, it is of import ance to point out to your Excellency the unavoid able necessity of reconciling all your decisions with the strictest observance of legal precepts, And the legal respect for rights the free exercise of which must engender the sincere application of political institutions by which we are governed. " From the moment when the agitation which ordinarily precedes the electoral movement begins the action of the citizens also commences to be exercised, and under the circumstances the first duty of political authority is so to proceed as that this action shall b 3 peaceably carried out in all the plenitude guaranteed by the laws and under the special conditions of regularity and order demanded by the high interests of the State. " The election of deputies to the Cortes is not an unforeseen event, and does not belong to the class of those which arise suddenly, and without any apparent preparation. It is, upon the con trary, a fact very generally announced in advance —the inevitable consequence of the ardour of ideas and opinions, or of the collision of interests and sympathies, the changes of which date from a distant period. To produce useful results the crisis must take place with the utmost possible liberty. It would be useless to point out to your Excel lency, whose sagacity I know and appreciate, how unfortunate have been the attacks made upon this doctrine at different times and in different coun tries. The Government of the Queen reckons upon the functionaries in whom it has placed confidence, scrupulously avoiding the imitation of these de plorable examples. " Fortunately the legislation which rules and secures the exercise of the electoral rights has already furnished experiences which must not.be forgotten. Your Excellency is no doubt well acquainted with them, and the Go vernment hopes that you will derive examples and useful counsel from their application upon the pre-• sent eccaeion. Further, public customs throw out roots, and band themselves to the spirit and ideas of the political law which governs us. Although more or lees specious discussions have recently risen upon several points, the latest laws which settle the rules to which the rights of assembly must be subjected, smoothes away (in the opinion of the Government) many obstacles by abrogating administrative ar- rangements, less formal than the law, in which some have affected to find sufficient reasons for com plaint and exclusion which can no longer be brought forward with sincerity. si The electoral course is clear and open. The law, which guarantees the right of entering there upon to any one legally qualified to do so, is exe cuted with religious rigour. There is no legitimate opinion which cannot expound its doctrines, and which does not explain them with a liberty and amplitude of which examples have never previ ously been seen in Spain. The late amnesty, finally, generously recalls to the bosoms of their famiiies the small number of individuals who have been separated from them by recent and deplorable events. What more could be asked for? If some persons are still anxious to revive without reason, right, or motive the state of anarchical tyranny and the sinister agitation through which we have recently passed, let the responsibility of the conse quences of such blindness fall upon their own heads ! The Government of a great kingdom can. not stop in its career, and the nation must not sus pend the majestic progress of its vital force because a handful of political subjects are unfortunately the victims of a deplorable hallucination. " Your Excellency, as well as the Queen's Go. vernment, finds yourself therefore supported and defended by a power superior to all force, by the power born of the sure conviction of moderation and j.stice, strengthened by a will obeying the strict dictates of conscience. " Relying upon the well-known instruc• tions and evident facilities of which I have just spoken, and guided by thoroughly de fined maxims, your Excellency will not hesitate for a single instant to resolve the questions within your competence which may arise during the poli tical period in which we are now placed. Your Excellency will bear in mind that the Queen's Go vernment is determined to support and aid its delegates energetically upon all occasions when their conduct shall be in harmony with the ideas it proclaims so frankly and practises so sincerely. But it will with the same rigour place the respon sibility, according to the case, upon those who shall endeavour to paralyse or oppose its action by mis interpreting the sincerity of its wishes, by departing from the rectitude of its intentions, and by entail• jug sterility upon its programme. May Heaven preserve your Excellency many years, GONZALIZ BRAVO. "To his Excellency the Governor of the Province of -- ."

The cave is a most romantic and delightfully secluded spot, and stands close to the Eye stream, which winds like a serpent through the green glen. It consists of a narrow ledge of rock, only accessible from one point, overhung by a frowning, rugged precipice, fes tooned with wild herbs and creeping plants, which thrusts itself forward over the glen at an angle of about 90 degrees. Her Majesty and party, after a very interesting exp loration of this famed rock fortress of a once brave Highland chief tain, partook of a sumptoas luncheon, and returned via Braemar to B Amoral about half-past six.
